I know this is an old vid but I just have to comment. Last month my cousin ordered this set from Amazombie. What he received was aftermarket garbage,not even low grade American gatbage. These pieces of plastic ARE NOT ITW NEXUS manufactured equipment! Buyers beware.
3 years later, have you had the opportunity to use the light, late night, on the side of the road to "beat off" any monster. Seems like an odd task, but I thought it was worth a like and comment...
I built this exact handrail and SA kit make sure you dimple the barrel they will 100 be like its your fault, if your op rod bends like mine did. Although the cause was a case jaming in the charging handle slot then the bolt slammed the empty casing against the rod bending it slightly. Not noticing this was possible and a inherent design flaw. After clearing i shot two more times finishing the mag then I couldn’t clear the bolt because the rod was bent into the charging handle. Im pretty pissed their customer service is garbage they want a 100 dollars for a new rod and to drill a dimple to fix it supposedly. Get the clamp on to avoid this or dont buy, you get a jam like i did your gun is a literal paper weight.
I dimpled my barrel for the gas block. I never want to say never, but I have not to this point had any jamming issues with the rifle. I’m not even to 1000 rounds on the piston, but the rifle has a few thousand on it. I haven’t dealt with SA customer service much, but I did have to get a longer op rod, as the kit I got was for carbine length and my gas system is mid length; I had no customer service issues doing that.
what glove size do you normally wear in other gloves? the sizing chart from vertx says i should wear small but i normally wear large or XL in other gloves.
I was weighing the use of this kit on a midlength barrel and Geissele handguard. THEN, I watched your video and took note of your comment about the Aero Preision barrel nut. THANK YOU for pointing this out. I do think that the piston could use better retention, especially the longer throw of midlength systems. Ordering a Aero rail now to finish this build with confidence in its success. Thank you!
4 - 6 minutes pick that Medeco. Every time you can to meet difficult lock of every brand but in 75-85% have standard time for picking. MTL my favourite brand but that cylinder not difficult more ))) Medeco more good. Thank You for your time and interesting video 👍🔓💯 Good luck 👍🔓😁🏆☮️
300BLK ammo in general, but especially subs, doesn’t produce enough pressure to reliably push the op rod from the gas block. It’s not to say you can’t do it at all, but Superior Arms won’t guarantee that it would work reliably. It would be interesting to see someone try it and what their results are. It might work better when suppressed.
If someone is going to go to the trouble of making a video to post on RU-vid, at least get SOMETHING, ANYTHING to hold the phone, camera or whatever so you have both hands free to manipulate whatever it is you are demonstrating or showing. Watching videos that fail to do this is like sitting still while someone drags their fingernails along a chalkboard.
Everyone has to start somewhere. I’m. Of to the point where I’ve made a single penny off of RU-vid yet, and this video was a few years ago at the very beginning when I was just figuring out how all this worked.
I say extend the life. I'm about to do the same. I found a made in China knockoff of the angle head. Heavy, chinsy switch, lenses that are too close in tolerance to the lense holder compartment, but LED and bright when working. Found them at tractor supply. Spent some time the other day helping my none year old figure out how to fix the switch on his. I kept thinking about how I never had issues with the Fulton except for dim lighting. My Fulton does have an LED now and I found 3xAA to D adapters. The adapters get you 4.5 V per "D" instead of 1.5 V. I recently saw a post where 14500s were used in these adapters. That would give 24V and rechargeability but I'm not sure if the light housing can take the heat of an LED that runs at that voltage. We'll find out I guess!
I have the same problem from what I’m reading is the the retainer pin is a bit off spec the buffer should stick out a few mm more so I’m looking into something called a offset detent it will let the buffer out more to touch the bolt carrier instead of slamming into the detent pin. Good luck I’m on the same boat lol
Theyre meh. Youd probably want as few as possible. Personally i like old school ruck sacks. The nylon poly stuff is bad on my hands theres a ton of straps. I got a pack of loose straps and buckles on whamazon and a grommet setter tool. Fun. 😎
Those carabiners could come in very handy. I have a few of those myself but they are absolutely cheap china trash. I wouldn't trust them to hold more than a pair of gloves...
There are two holes inside of the strike plate that you haven’t utilized. You need to drill and place two three inch screws inside of that plate for additional security. I’d also invest in some weather stripping, hundreds of dollars of heating and cooling are escaping from your house with that drafty door.
Oh, it’s 3.5” screws that hold the strike plate on. The door frame is made of 4x4s (old true 4”x4”), so it’s got some good bite, but the box strike plate is inset into it, and thus doesn’t have 4 more inches before hitting the window. The air leakage around this door is small beans compared to many other spots in this 110+ year old house. I’ve been targeting them one by one, but frankly installing gasketing into the door is not a low cost modification. Thus I am just sticking with the brass weather strip that is already there
If you want to eliminate the wear patter on the edges, caused by the buffer retaining pin; you can just *REMOVE* the pin and just be careful when you open your ar for cleaning. If you know it's (buffer weight & spring) going to fly out, you'll be ready for it and gently "catch" or stop it with your hand. It's not that hard to get used to.
One thing that will really reinforce the frame is a london bar this is a steel strip on the inside of the door that runs the length screwed in with long case hardened wood screws 10x2 , 1/2 And the door needs a secuirty escutcheon that reinforces the door from breaking away.
Talking about those two products suggests to me that you are from the UK, where mortise locks are more common. Not to say there aren’t unheard of here (my handle lock is mortised in), but deadbolt are not typically mortised. Because North America insists on being different, we have different types of cylinder and mechanisms.
Wemo mini never connected. I had 4 of these and 3 stopped working. One is still working. So I go buy 2 more thinking that they were just too old. The new ones never connected. Spent hours on all of this. Threw the old ones in the garbage and returned the new ones. I bought the Kasa mini. Took me 5 minutes to set up.
Did you have to do any modifications to the barrel nut to fit this? That is the gen 2 enhanced hang guard. I'd like to buy the same just wondering how much work it'd be
I notice you stated this isn’t compatible with 300 blackout. Currently, I have the set up on a 6.5 Grendel. I know that’s not blk but I would think it could run any small frame cartridge if it can run Grendel.
I bought a hyper fire reflex for my ar pistol and I purchased this for my ar rifle. Do you think I’ll be disappointed? It’s purpose is for medium range shooting
Reinforce your door frame most criminals will not pick your locks they will bypass them with some type of brute force. Which is why most people don’t spend alot of money on a door lock as you have .
